EdgarAllen's Mods - Super Crafting Frame

Super Crafting Frame is a simple mod that helps with repetitive crafting tasks during early game. Place it, set a recipe, and right-click it to craft the item from your inventory or an attached chest, barrel, etc.

Download and install Minecraft Forge. Toss SuperCraftingFrame into the mods folder inside .minecraft or your server's mods folder. In Minecraft 1.6.x and later; mods can be installed to separate sub directories to organize mods for the different versions. i.e. /mods/1.6.2/ or /mods/1.7.2/

Notes:

There is a config option to check attached inventory for items before crafting new ones. This may cause the amount of items recieved to be less than expected. i.e. It will toss the one 1 wooden ladder in the chest instead of the 3 you would recieve in a proper craft of the recipe. This may cause slight confusion when you click three times and get 1, 1, 3 back.

When crafting it will try to pull ingredients from a chest first before the players inventory. Just keep that in mind if you have ingredients in an attached chest that you don't want to use for crafting.

I don't recursively look into any of the backpacks or bags for items. If there is something you don't want to use for crafting, you can hide them in there.

Usage has slightly changed in 1.7.2. In previous versions: right-click crafted item, control + right-click crafted a full stack, and sneak + right-click with fist opened the gui.

If you have any other issues, let me know.

Crafting frame checks inventories for items before crafting new ones.

It works out pretty good. It's simple and is a great in between solution before you build your complex sorting and crafting system. Even then I find I still like to use them for food things like bread or berry bowls. I can just dump all my wheat into a chest and then quickly refill my food stack as needed.

I took a look at AE. I haven't used it all that much. I tend to play mostly hardcore and die before I get setup enough for an ME system.

I really thought that applying a conversion matrix to a storage monitor would allow you to craft items if their count reached zero. That would serve a similar purpose and I didn't want to mess with AEs balance by having a recipe that takes 8 planks do the same thing as their much more expensive monitors and conversion matrix recipes. Guess they don't work that way(though, it would be really cool if they did).

One way to get the crafting frames to work with AE is to place the crafting frame on a ME interface and set the interface to export enough items to cover crafting. ie export 8 planks for a chest, or one stick and one coal for torches. It should work fine then. Though, one thing I noticed was that the me system takes a few ticks to export new items for the next craft, so if you spam the crafting frame fast enough, it may not refill the interface in time and will complain about missing ingredients. Give it a half second and it should be fine.

Oh sweet Eris thank you! This is just like the project table concept from Red Power 2 that I desperately wanted in every game ever and couldn't have because RedPower2 was too much for our group's desire for complexity.
Thank you thank you! I'm going to set up my kitchen with recipes from harvestcraft and have a food production assembly like no other! Awwwwesome ^^ THANK YOU!

Ditto to what spavo said. I like magic and low-tech, so avoid stuff like BuildCraft, AE, etc. Having a way to deal with incredibly repetitive craftings without having to delve into the depths of a tech mod is extremely, extremely nice, and this fits in perfectly. (After installing this, I made several thousand stone bricks with this mod's help to rebuild my home base... so, so, so helpful.)

Excuse me while I make a mod spotlight. This mod deserves this. This is one of those few good ideas that aren't just regurgitated and "copied" from somewhere else. I'll send you a PM as soon as I'm done. Good job!

EDIT: Bah. It'll have to come later, I'm having some trouble getting Forge to behave.

EDIT2: Here's the video, sorry about the aspect ratio, I'll be working on it:
